I believe Firefox is infected by a trojan virus, I run a complete virus scan but it does not pick up anything

I believe the virus is associated with firefox, I run a complete scan using McAfee, anti virus, but it shows up nothing. Firefox constantly shows no responding signs, then it will be normal again. Or I have to go into task manager and end firefox.

There is a fake transaction from my bank account, is there anyway I an remove the trojan?

Hi leehuiling

try with a few malware/virus scan programs. You need to use all programs because each detects different malware. Make sure to update each program to get the latest version before doing a scan.
